Death, the grim reaper, laid its cold hands on the nation on Wednesday evening and cut short the promising lives and career of a Captain and 44 soldiers of the Nigerian Army in one fell swoop.

The ghastly accident, which also left five soldiers with severe injuries occurred on the Kari-Potiskum-Maiduguri highway, at about seven o’clock. The nation has been thrown into mourning with the accident being described by observers as the most fatal road crash involving the Nigerian Army since after the civil war.
